HOLY INTERCOOLER, BATMAN!! Looks like a nice setup. What's your fuel setup consist of and at what psi was your run at? But yeah, definatly ditch the tail lights and the clears - better yet burn the teezas and paint the clears with amber stainglass color paint (amber color painted clears = ).

Hey, I love my carbon fiber tailights and my clear corners. You're entitled to your opinion, so I'm cool with it. It's running at about 7lbs of boost right now.

&lt;----- grabs his reading glasses, waits a bit, wonders when the thread will come about this guy having his car stolen.


unless you have a garage or an attack dog I would suggest painting that intercooler and making sure your baby is safe. i hate reading theft threads and see your car is very attractive to the eye. i'd keep an eye out. please park that thing in a garage. nice ride and nice numbers. to each his own about appearance. i don't mind the clears, but I would ditch the tail lights.

I agree with the poster above... the more attention you draw to the exterior, the more likely its going to be taken.

Actually the time slip is from about 1 month ago, I don't know what's going on with the dates on Englishtown's slips. I've been racing with the BFG drag radials. The 12 second car next to me was a Corvette (fast bastard).

I didn't realize so many people were against those back taillights. I just hated the way the stock ones looked a couple years ago. It does bother me that every car I see on the road has those clear ones (come on...at least mine are carbon fiber).

I'm trying to come up with ways to get money to build the motor, I want to go faster and turn up the boost!!

Alot of poeple ditch 94-97 tails, and go wtih the 98+ oem, do you like those? Again it's your car so do what you want, but i think the 98 oem tails would be a nice addition to the car What size turbo? Also next time @ the track try gettign the bfg's a little hotter, you shouldnt have a problem nailing a consistent 20 60 ft. Also look slike you got a msg dig 6, do you have the 2 step hooked up. That will also help your time.

I think the OEM 98 + ones are nice, but I'm not interested in buying any more cosmetic parts for the car. The only thing I'm considering is a front lip to cover the intercooler.

It's a t3/t4 turbo, I did my setup *** backwards, turbo first, engine build later. I think if I build the engine first I wouldn't be able to wait to get the turbo. I get a little taste of what the turbo is capable of and it pushes me to find ways to build the motor!!

Damn...how tall are you to get that good a shot of your engine? lol
Nice Kragen battery!

Also, I've never liked clear tails but my friend put the same carbon fiber ones on his integra and it didn't look half bad. Not my thing, but you won't here any flaming from me.

On the other hand clear bumper lenses are my thing, if you're running the appropriate hyper white bulbs.

Mmm....turbo....n i c e.

So, any suggestions on what to do next. (I know build the motor), but maybe some less expensive advice. I took out the AC (it broke, so why bother fixing it), and I was thinking about a new exhaust (my greddy evo is only 2 1/4), and maybe change out the throttle body. I don't know, give me some of your ideas. Thanks.

Sell the greddy evo, go with 3" that will yield some nice power, and go hondata, tuning, I say do this and then build the motor later when it blows

With those 2 mods and tuning around 10-11 psi you should be right @ 300 whp.

I already have the Hondata S100. I'm going to keep the boost at around 7 for now since my motor has higher mileage and I really can't afford anything to happen to it right now. Milder tuning is better for the moment.
